SYMPOSIUM ON ENVIRONMENTAL TRAINING - CALL FOR KEY-NOTE SPEAKERS
Eco Counselling Europe, the European umbrella organisation of national
environmental counselling associations, has been commissioned by the
Austrian Ministry for the Environment to take part in the design and
running of a symposium entitled:
"QUALIFICATIONS IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL SECTOR - MARKET OPPORTUNITIES"
The symposium will be held on 19 March '97 in VIENNA, Austria.
The symposium will primarily focus on the question whether and in what
form better professional qualifications in the environmental protection
field do enhance chances and opportunities on the labour market. We are
particularly interested in new and innovative forms of environmental
training which have a track record of success on the market, new
professions and areas of expertise which increase personal oportunities,
examples and case-studies which demonstrate how environmental
qualifications have influenced socio- economic developments, curricula
and educational approaches in environmental science and conservation at
all professional and academic levels.
To achieve the best possible coverage of different approaches, models and
forms of environmental training as they relate to the above areas of
interest, we are looking for several key-note speakers for the above
symposium. Speakers should have considerable experience in the field,
ideally in the areas of environmental science curricula,
environmental training programmes, or the link between environmental
qualifications and market chances. We particularly encourage experts who
have hands-on experiences and can present several case-studies to forward
a tender.
In exchange for an appropriately professional fee, speakers will be
required to give a 45- minute presentation and participate in one or two
workshops of not more than 2-hours duration each.
All costs (return travel to Vienna, hotel-accommodation, etc.) will, of
course, by covered by the organisers !
Please contact us with a short outline of your professional background
and experiences in the environmental field, the proposed title of your
presentation and any other relevant information which may be of interest
in the context of the above symposium.
We look forward to hearing from you
Regards
Thomas Schlacher, PhD
